Gnocchi alla Parigina

Picture
Serves 4-6

Ingredients:
  • 1 lb potato gnocchi
  • butter
  • 1.5 cups bechamel sauce (recipe follows)
  • 1 C grated parmesan cheese
  • breadcrumbs

Instructions:
​​First, make a bechamel sauce. Set aside and keep warm. Pre-heat oven to 400 F. Butter a baking dish large enough to hold 1 pound of potato gnocchi. Boil the gnocchi, and when ready, remove them from the water and put them into a large bowl. Fold in the bechamel and 2/3 of the cheese. You may have some bechamel left, or not. Pour this mixture in to the baking dish, then top with the rest of the cheese, a sprinkling of breadcrumbs and a few pieces of butter. Bake for 10 minutes or so, and finish by broiling until golden brown on top.


Bechamel Sauce

Ingredients:
  • 4 tbsp butter - 3 tbsp flour - 2 cups milk
  • salt - pepper - nutmeg

Instructions:
Melt the butter over medium heat in a small saucepan. Stir in flour, and cook, stirring, for about three minutes until smooth and bubbling but not browned. It should have the texture of wet sand.
Slowly whisk in the milk and bring to a simmer, whisking all the while, until the mixture begins to thicken. Season to taste, turn the heat off and keep warm.
